[Year 12 IT Apps] Interested in Informed ICT Leadership in schools? workshop 19th March

Mon Mar 15 17:11:01 EST 2010

Hi Cameron,

Fair question – I have asked the VITTA office to get back to you about the
presenters at this session.

But hey – layoff “Directors”!  I have a decent teaching load, am not from a
consultative organisation, work for DEECD, am run off my feet with class
prep, run the ICT dept as well as being a ‘leader’ in the school, have my
own life and a young family!  Remember: ALL GENERALISATIONS ARE BAD!  (ß
which is a joke BTW)

Adrian (DIRECTOR of ICT) Janson

On another tack - I would like *more detailed information on the presenters*
because personally I am over people who have absolutely no teaching load,
usually from consultative organisations, region or wealthy private schools
that can afford to staff and resource the ICT appropriately or know how it
works "in theory" telling me how to achieve "best practise"  when I am run
off my feet trying to keep up to date with class prep and correction and run
the ICT dept and being a "leader" in the school and hence trying to stay up
to date with school admin, pedagogy,  new curriculums and have my own life
and a young family.

E.g As soon as I see "Director"  in a presenters title I pretty well know
what I am in for....

Exactly what are the credentials of the presenters?

! 

Cheers

Cameron

Interested? Maybe.

But 3 hrs for $200/250 and I have to travel 2hrs each way (at least). No, I
am not interested.

VITTA rolls on. J

INFORMED ICT SCHOOL LEADERSHIP

Information and Communications Technology leaders have a crucial role to
play in schools. In investigating the ICT leadership role, Therese Keane
conducted research to obtain perspectives from a variety of personnel in key
leadership positions in schools as well as teacher perspectives. From the
research it was identified that to be an effective Information and
Communications Technology leader, one needs to have experience and skills in
four specific areas. Find out what these are and how to implement effective
ICT leadership in ! your school.

Who is this for?

Whether you are in a primary school or a secondary school, ICT leadership is
